How do I stop teams from turning my headset volume up to 100% in the "App volume and device preferences" before each call?

The title says it all. The only way to prevent my ear drums from bursting is:

  1. Join a call before anyone else
  2. open Settings
  3. search for "Sound mixer options" (which takes you to the "App volume and device preferences" screen)
  4. turn the teams volume down for my headset

This happens 100% of the time and it's absolutely ridiculous.

    Had the same problem since a few days. After unpairing my bluetooth handset and repairing it, the volume control starting working again as expected.

    I have the same issue too, using Jabra2 evolve 85.

    Having the same device my volume always jumps up when the headset switches from normal mode to call mode. I fixed it by prioritizing the computer audio. This is a setting in your headset which can be set with Jabra Direct software in: Settings =>Softphone => enable Prioritize computer audio.
